Shih Chang HU (aka 胡世昌) [1924-2006]

Submitted by Alan Ho on

Dr. Hu Shih-Chang (Woo Sai Cheung) was educated at Wah Yan College in Hong Kong, entering in 1939. He excelled academically, was diligent and conscientious, and frequently topped his class. In 1941, when the Pacific War broke out, he was studying in the Matriculation Class but could not complete the year due to the Japanese invasion of Hong Kong.

St. Joseph's "Complex" and Wah Yan College on Robinson Road

Submitted by C on

There was a cluster of buildings, which were confusingly all named "St. Joseph's", at the eastern end of Robinson Road.  These include St. Joseph's Terrace, St. Joseph's Building, St. Joseph's House and St. Joseph's Mansion.  I recently found a map on uwants.com which can clarify the location of the buildings in what I coin as the St. Joseph's Complex.

Shek Lo [????- ]

Notes from Lawrence Tsui:

I have also been learning about 'Shek Lo' (Peter Lodge) of Lung Yeun Tau (Head of the Leaping Dragon) Heritage Trial which was the house Peter Tsui Yan-sau built when he was developing Wah Yan.  In the 70s, I had a cosy hideout in the house my father Paul Tsui grew up.  The house also contains much of the collective memories of the extended Tsui family.
